  • Polymer based electrospray nozzle for mass spectrometry
    Patent number: 7692141
    Abstract: A MEMS device with an overhanging ‘polymer’ capillary provides vital and significant improvements in interfacing a MEMS electrospray nozzle to an MS inlet or other macroscopic instrumentation. The fabrication methodology associated therewith is easily expanded to include built-in micro particle filters and centimeter long serpentine micro channels provided on-chip and fabricated using a low temperature process.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 19, 2007
    Date of Patent: April 6, 2010
    Assignees: California Institute of Technology, City of Hope
    Inventors: Yu-Chong Tai, Xuan-Qi Wang, Amish Desai, Terry D. Lee, Lawrence Licklider
